Early 2020, i was on micro blogging platform Twitter and i saw a Tech Bro(or let me say 'sis') celebrating her wins, she just got employed by Goggle and she was telling her story of how the journey started, she traced her way back to a particular program called HNG internship(i cant remember the particular cohort), reading through her story i was impressed and wanted to have an amazing story as hers.
I searched through the web and wanted to get more information about HNG, my search led me to Zuri(https://zuri.team ), i subscribed to their newsletter and i was patiently waiting for the big announcement. On the 7th of August i got a mail from the Program Manager, Zuri Team(Seyi Onifade) and he was inviting me to apply for the Zuri/HNG internship(https://internship.zuri.team)
I applied for the Mobile development track, and i can't wait to use my programming knowledge to start providing solutions. I see this internship as a part of the journey to becoming a world class developer. At the end of this internship, i hope to have achieved the following.
- Meet with other Developers and learn from them
- Improve my discipline and ability to work under pressure.
- Learn programming best practises
- Meet with mentors and experienced Kotlin programmers.
- Improve Team work and collaboration
- Add more projects to my portfolio
Want to use this opportunity to give a Shout out to the Zuri team and HNG internship, this guys are amazing. They are providing world class training at zero cost and the only thing they demand from us is Hard-work. I am grateful for such a wonderful opportunity.

It is often said that “Journey of a thousand miles, starts with a single step”
My first step is this and hope to refer back to this at the end of the internship with goals achieved.
